Elly's fine, the sun shines most the time.
L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time.
I've got an Antony Stevens side.
I've got an emptiness deep, inside.
Palm trees grow and ransom low.
Palm trees grow, and rents are low.
Palm trees grow, and ransom notes
Palm trees grow, and rents are low.
And no one heard at all
Not even would share
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair
But I got an Anthony Stevens sign
But I got an emptiness deep inside
I am I said I am to die
I am, I said. I am said I
I am Sid Hines
I am said I
I am a shed. I answered I
I am, I said. I am said I
I am myself.
I am, I said.
Palm trees blow and rinse a load.
Palm trees grow, and rents are low.
Well, I'm New York City born and raised
And our days are lost between two shores.
Well, I'm New York City born and raised
But nowadays I'm lost between two shores.
I am my Christ
I am to die
"I am" ... I cried.
"I am" ... said I
"I am my Christ" (not "I am the Christ")
Ellie's fine, the sun shines most the time.
L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time.
And I am lost and I can
Even say why
And I am lost and I can't
Even say why
And the feeling is laid back
And the feeling is "lay back"
I am upset
"I am"...I said
Well, except for the names
And a few of the changes
Well, except for the names
And a few other changes
